To Harbeth or not to Harbeth, That is the question...


Whether it is nobler in the ear when listening primarily to vocals and acoustic music at 55-65db max?

Whether the 30.2 or the HL5+ produces the most magical sound in a mid sized room?

These are my questions.  

I like British Speakers. Not really sure why. Respect for the the duration of their businesses?
The uppity nature of some of the makers? I enjoy the sound of Tannoy, Harbeth, Graham, ProAc, ATC.

So Friends, Romans, Harbethians please share with me you HB experiences as it relates to low volume
listening. And please explain your passion for black screw heads.

 I was gobsmacked by the difference in low level listening of my 30.1's,as well as the increase in bass depth & resolution when I moved a Sugden A21 Signature into the mix..Have moved up to a MusicMaster(16/24wpc.hot biased Class A from the Bijou series)driven by a R2R Dac running Class A..Currently torn between the 30.1's & moving to a 3 way floorstander,which I may put head to head with the 30.1's...
^^^^ Something more efficient,possibly Verity Audio Finn & have been in contact with Border Patrol regarding the latest Auditorium series from Living Voice(UK made)..IMO the combination of class a ss & a more efficient speaker= superb low level listening..
 DAC/Pre/Head Amp is Audio GD R28.
